ROBSON SEED FARMS 5|c HALL, N. Y. 
Alpha seems to produce better crops in poor barley years than other varieties. 
CERTIFIED ALPHA 
BARLEY 
2 to bu. will sow 1 acre 
The most popular two-rowed variety in the East. 
Alpha is a heavy producing large kerneled barley 
with fairly stiff straw. Ripens a little later than the 
six row varieties; heads do not crinkle and break off. 
This makes it especially desirable for sowing with 
oats or harvesting with combine. Certified Seed 
1 to 10 bu. $1.60 per bu.; 10 bu. or more $1.50 
per bu. Not prepaid. 
CERTIFIED LENROC 
OATS 
A new heavy yielding white oat. This new variety 
was introduced by the Cornell University Agricul¬ 
ture Experiment Station in 1935 and originated from 
a cross made in 1918. Over an 11 year period (1924- 
34 incl.) it gave an average yield per acre of 62.1 
bu. or 1.3 bu. higher than Cornellian the next highest 
yielding sort. 
Lenroc is slightly taller than Cornellian, with white 
kernels which are similar in shape to Cornellian but 
somewhat larger and plumper. The hull is a little 
heavier but the percentage of meat nearly the same. 
It has proved equal or better in production than 
Cornellian and is superior in color because of the 
white kernels. Tests made in six counties in New 
York State from 1931-34 inclusive indicate that 
under most conditions it is superior in yield to all 
varieties tested. Certified Seed I to 15 bu. $1.25 
per bu.; 15 bu. or more $1.15 per bu. Not pre¬ 
paid. 
CANADA FIELD PEAS 
We have always taken great care in the selection of 
Canadian Field Peas to get seed that is free from dis¬ 
ease and will ripen with Cornellian Oats and Alpha 
Barley. Our seed is grown in the far North and has 
given excellent yields. Each shipment is tested for 
blight at the New York Seed Laboratory. 1 to 5 bu. 
$3.75 per bu.; 5 bu. or more $3.60 per bu. Not 
prepaid. 
CERTIFIED CORNELLIAN 
OATS 
2 to 'lyi bu. will sow 1 acre 
This oat is grey in color and appears small due to 
the very thin hull. The kernel when removed 
from the hull is as large as that of the larger varieties. 
The feeding value of Cornellian is very high due 
to the high percentage of meat. A heavy produc¬ 
ing, stiff strawed variety. Certified Seed. 1 to 15 
bu. $1.10 per bu.; 15 bu. or more $1.00 per bu. 
Not prepaid. Uncertified seed: $ .90 per bu. 
Not prepaid.
